@Derek2245122@nick_field90 My handle is MaleldilsWay. Maleldil is from the CS Lewis Ransom trilogy and fights against the bent one in order to save the human race. It’s storytelling at its finest.
@drgerke1 One of the Dems’ superstars right now, @jamestalarico is a master storyteller. He grounds his policy answer to this question on affordability in moral terms of fairness and justice Humans make sense of our world through storytelling: https://t.co/pnkA7lNab7
@Derek2245122@nick_field90 Your fixation with message over content, style over substance is why we’re in this mess. Did any of the simple slogans Trump won with help you in ANY way?
@Derek2245122@nick_field90 Then you are one of the lazy American voters who I lay the blame on. If you do not see the correlation between the policies she advocated for and that you shared with others and your own personal wellbeing, I can’t help you pal, if you’d rather have it wrapped in better packaging

@ProudSocialist@BarackObama is talking about how humans connect, how we develop shared mores, value and traditions. Storytelling is CENTRAL to that. What story do YOU want us to be telling? Affordability is a moral issue. How do you propose framing it?
@Derek2245122@nick_field90 Messaging all you want. Voters don’t seem to be making their decisions based on messaging. 5th base it on marketing. Marketing can help sell a product, but it won’t make the product so what it’s supposed to. Until we vote based on intelligence & not emotion…
@Derek2245122@nick_field90 Dude. I can’t help you. After a lifetime of progressive political activism, it’s crystal clear to me that American voters are dumb as fuck and care more about sizzle than steak, more about whether they’d have a beer with someone than trust them with their kids’ futures. Blame
@Derek2245122@nick_field90 And to answer your question, no neither Hillary nor Kamala one. I know the difference between causation and correlation. Do you?
@Derek2245122@nick_field90 Thank you for proving my point. The fact that voters laughed is exactly what I have been trying to say. You literally laid out policies that would help these people and they laughed at you. The easiest answer is to lay the blame at the feet of a candidate.
@Derek2245122@nick_field90 Dude. Donald Trump received 62.9 million votes in 2016, 74.2 million votes in 2020, and 77.3 million votes in 2024. For you to ignore what this says about American voters & try to lay the blame at the feet of the candidates is just willful blindness.
